Inferno of Love

My heart
Winter landscape
In frosted wilderness
Vestiges of wrecked emotions
Frozen.

That’s where
In enticed dawn
The blazing summer sun
Rises with the fond warmth of your
Embrace.

I feel
Your flaring charm
Melt glacier of longing
As I plunge in the inferno
Of love.

Engulfed
My yearning burns
In the wind of fervor
Ash flies to your sky on wings of
Desire.
